3. What is the balanced equation for the galvanic cell reaction expressed using shorthand notation below? Ni(s) | Ni2+(aq) || Cl2(g) | Cl-(aq) | C(s) a) Ni(s) + 2 Cl-(aq) → Ni2+(aq) + Cl2(g) b) Ni2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) → NiCl2(s) c) Ni2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) → Ni(s) + Cl2(g) d) Ni(s) + Cl2(g) → Ni2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq)

personal, she chose to do it.

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
